Opinion by Judge LAY; Dissent by Judge GRABER.

In this diversity ease, William L. Fleming sued Monumental Life Insurance Company and Monumental General Insurance Group (“Monumental”) to recover life insurance benefits Fleming alleged were due under a policy Monumental issued to Paul Arnold. Following a bench trial, the district court entered judgment in favor of Fleming. Monumental appeals. We affirm.

BACKGROUND

Fleming is an attorney who has practiced in the area of trusts and estates for several years. In 1990, Fleming and Arnold, his domestic partner, purchased a home in Seattle. When Fleming and Arnold purchased their home, they obtained a mortgage through First Interstate Mortgage Company (“FIMC”). Monumental issued a Group Policy (“Group Policy”) to the Trustees of the National Homeowners’ Group Insurance Trust in care of FIMC. The Group Policy provided mortgage life insurance and was available to mortgagors of FIMC.

In 1993, Fleming and Arnold purchased mortgage life insurance from Monumental through FIMC. At this time, Arnold had been diagnosed with AIDS. In June 1993, Monumental issued Certificate Number 000041556 (“Certificate”) to Fleming and Arnold. Monumental did not require a medical examination or other evidence of insurability prior to issuing the Certificate. Neither Fleming nor Arnold ever saw or received a copy of the Group Policy.

The Group Policy and the Certificate contained a “conversion privilege” that allowed *1003 policy holders to convert their group coverage to an individual policy. The conversion privilege in the Certificate stated in relevant part:

Monumental Excerpts of R. at 92.

In early 1995, Fleming and Arnold learned FIMC was changing group insurance carriers, and coverage under the Group Policy would end. On March 9, 1995, Fleming and Arnold wrote to Monumental and indicated their intent to exercise their conversion privilege. On May 9, 199’5, Robin Fitzhenry, a client service associate at Monumental, responded by mailing applications to both Fleming and Arnold. In the cover letter accompanying the applications, Fitzhenry advised Fleming and Arnold to submit monthly premiums she calculated for the men’s “attained ages and an insurance coverage amount of $231,463.00.” 1 Monumental Excerpts of R. at 111. On May 25,1995, Arnold submitted his completed application along with a personal check to cover the premium due for the first month. 2 Monumental began processing the application, and Arnold’s check cleared his account on July 3, 1995.

Monumental did not immediately send the policy to Arnold. In June 1995, Fleming called Fitzhenry to determine when Monumental would send the policy to Arnold. After waiting another month without receiving the policy, Fleming called Fitzhenry on July 24, 1995. Fleming claims that during that conversation, Fitzhenry agreed with his calculation that the effective date of Arnold’s policy was June 9,1995, and she told him the policy would issue. Fleming memorialized this conversation in a letter to Fitzhenry dated August 1, 1995. Fitzhenry testified during her deposition that she believed Fleming’s letter accurately reflected the conversation she and Fleming had on July 24, 1995. Arnold died on July 26,1995.

On August 8, 1995, Colleen Gizinski of Monumental wrote a letter to Arnold indicating that although his conversion application requested coverage in the amount of $231,-463, “according to the Conversion privilege your coverage may not exceed the amount of insurance which ends, or $18,000.” Monumental Excerpts of R. at 122. The letter indicated that Arnold’s individual insurance coverage was effective April 1, 1995. Gizin-ski enclosed with the letter Arnold’s signed application on which she had crossed out $231,463 and substituted $18,000 in the space marked “Insurance Amount Desired.” See id. at 126. She also included a check for $155.88, which she said represented overpayment of premium.

On August 25, 1995, Fleming wrote to Gizinski. In his letter, Fleming informed Monumental of Arnold’s death, enclosed Arnold’s death certificate, returned the $155.88 refund check, and demanded death benefits in the amount of $231,463. Monumental refused Fleming’s demands.

Subsequently, Fleming filed suit against Monumental in federal district court, claiming a right, as the named beneficiary in Arnold’s policy, to specific performance of policy benefits. Monumental moved for sum *1004 mary judgment, but the court declined to grant the motion. On November 18, 1996, the district court held a bench trial. Following the trial, the district court made findings of fact and conclusions of law, and entered judgment in favor of Fleming.

The court ultimately ordered Monumental to pay Fleming $231,463 together with prejudgment interest. The court also awarded Fleming reasonable attorney’s fees.

DISCUSSION

The Contract

Upon learning of Arnold’s and Fleming’s desire to exercise their “conversion privilege” under the Group Policy, Fitzhenry, Monumental’s agent, 3 sent Fleming and Arnold applications for conversion of group life insurance. On Arnold’s application, Fitzhenry filled in information such as Arnold’s name, address, date of birth, group policy number, and most importantly, the amount of insurance desired—$221,463. 4 Fitzhenry understood this amount to be the outstanding balance on the mortgage held by Fleming and Arnold. The application itself also stated:

Monumental Excerpts of R. at 112.

In addition, Fitzhenry sent Fleming a cover letter with the applications that stated, in relevant part:

Id. at 111.

The application and accompanying letter contained sufficient information to objectively manifest Monumental’s intent to provide Arnold with $231,463 of individual life insurance. Moreover, once Arnold received the application, he had nothing left to do but fill in a few remaining pieces of information, and return the application and deposit premium to Monumental.

After receiving the applications and cover letter from Monumental, Arnold completed the application by indicating his desired payment mode, named beneficiary, premium amount enclosed, and by signing and dating the application. On May 25, 1995, Fleming mailed Arnold’s completed application to Monumental, along with a cheek in the amount of $312.48 payable to Monumental. Monumental received the application and cover letter on May 30, 1995. We conclude from these facts and circumstances that Arnold accepted Monumental’s offer of an individual life insurance policy in the amount of $231,463. In sum, through the offer and acceptance, Monumental and Arnold expressed their mutual assent to a contract for individual life insurance in the amount of $231,463.

*1005 Monumental contends that while there is a contract between Monumental and Arnold, the contract is a result of conversion from the Group Policy to an individual policy. For this reason, Monumental argues, the terms of the contract are limited by provisions in the application, Group Policy, and Certifícate. First, Monumental points to a provision in the application that states: “The Individual Life Insurance policy hereby applied for shall not be effective unless ... said policy is available under the Conversion Privilege of the Group Poliey[.]” Monumental Excerpts of R. at 112. Second, Monumental points to a provision in the conversion privilege of the Certificate that states: “The amount of the policy may not exceed the amount of insurance which ends.” Id. at 92. Finally, Monumental points to the schedule of benefits contained in the Group Policy, and claims this schedule unambiguously limits Arnold’s benefits to the lesser of the balance of his loan, $231,463, or $36,000. 5 See Monumental Reply Br. at 5.

We disagree with Monumental’s argument for several reasons. First, Monumental’s contentions ignore the objective manifestations Fitzhenry made to Arnold through her application, cover letter, and confirmation of the policy. The application indicates the insurance applied for shall not be effective unless it is available under the Group Policy’s conversion privilege. However, Fitzhenry sent Arnold an application and a cover letter that informed Arnold that $231,463 of individual life insurance was available to him. Moreover, the application also states that any individual policy issued on the application is not a continuation of the insurance under the Group Policy. We conclude from these facts and circumstances that Monumental’s objective manifestations to provide Arnold with $231,463 of life insurance effectively supplanted any purported limitations on such coverage found in the application, Group Policy, or Certificate. 6 We thus find there was an offer and acceptance of the individual life insurance contract, 7 and Monumental must pay Arnold damages for breaching the contract.

Damages

The district court awarded Fleming damages in the amount of $231,463, together with pre-judgment interest. Monumental claims that in calculating these damages, the district court incorrectly relied upon the reasonable expectation doctrine, which Washington courts have expressly rejected. Further, Monumental claims that even if the district court properly applied the reasonable expectation doctrine, Fleming failed to present any evidence of such reasonable expectation.

The “reasonable expectation” doctrine provides that when an insurer creates a reasonable expectation of coverage that is not supported by the terms of an insurance policy, the expectation will prevail over the policy language. See Cook v. Evanson, 83 Wash.App. 149 , 920 P.2d 1223, 1227 (1996) (citing Island Associates, Inc. v. Eric Group, Inc., 894 F.Supp. 200, 203 (W.D.Pa.1995)). The present case does not involve a situation in *1006 which an insurer has created a reasonable expectation of coverage that is not supported by the terms of an insurance policy. Thus, we need not concern ourselves with Washington’s view on the reasonable expectation doctrine.

“The general measure of damages for breach of contract is that the injured party is entitled (1) to recovery of all damages that accrue naturally from the breach, and (2) to be put into as good a pecuniary position as [the party] would have had if the contract had been performed.” Eastlake Constr. Co. v. Hess, 102 Wash.2d 30 , 686 P.2d 465, 470 (1984) (en banc) (citing Diedrick v. School Dist. 81, 87 Wash.2d 598 , 555 P.2d 825 (1976)). As we held above, Monumental and Arnold entered into a contract whereby Monumental agreed to provide $231,463 of individual life insurance to Arnold. Monumental breached that contract when it refused to pay Fleming the benefits due under the policy. As such, Fleming is entitled to be put into the position he would occupy had Monumental performed under the contract.

CONCLUSION

For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. 8

. The applications themselves listed an insurance amount of $221,463.00-$10,000 less than the cover letter. As the applications contained a table of premium rates, Fleming used those tables to determine that based on the premium quoted, Fitzhenry made a scrivener's error on the applications. Fleming corrected the amount on the application to $231,463.00.

. Fleming chose not to submit a completed application for life insurance in his name.

. During oral argument, Monumental conceded that Fitzhenry had the authority as an agent to bind Monumental as principal.

. See supra, n.l.

. Monumental arrived at this $36,000 figure by multiplying a $1,500 monthly benefit by 24 months. These figures are contained in the Certificate. See Monumental Excerpts of R. at 89. This figure differs from the $18,000 maximum benefit payable figure found in the Group Policy's schedule of benefits. See id. at 97.

. Monumental also claims the amount of insurance Fitzhenry placed on the application was in error, and the terms of Arnold's conversion rights cannot be expanded by an error of the insurer. In support of this contention, Monumental cites Butler v. MFA Life Ins. Co., 591 F.2d 448 (8th Cir.1979), and Halverson v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co., 286 N.W.2d 531 (S.D.1979). We find these cases distinguishable. In Butler , the insured failed to take action necessary to convert his group policy into an individual policy, and the policy lapsed. In Halverson , the insured similarly failed to comply with a requirement found in her group policy before she converted to an individual policy. That is not the case here. Moreover, even if Fitzhenry mistakenly offered Arnold $231,463 of insurance, and the district court concluded she did not, such a mistake does not allow Monumental to avoid the contract. Arnold did not know of the mistake and, under the circumstances, cannot be charged with such knowledge. See Gill v. Waggoner, 65 Wash.App. 272 , 828 P.2d 55, 58 (1992).

.The district court alternatively found that Monumental was estopped from invoking any limiting language in the Application, Certificate and/or Group Policy. In view of our agreement with the district court that Monumental is liable on the contract, we need not pass on the district court’s finding of estoppel.

. The district court also concluded Monumental did not comply with the laws and regulations of the State of Washington governing the use and marketing of the Group Policy and coverage under it. On this basis, the district court concluded the Group Policy was illegal, and this prevented Monumental from setting up terms or conditions in the Group Policy as a bar to otherwise valid claims.

As we concluded above, the offer from Monumental to Arnold, and Arnold’s corresponding acceptance of that offer, created a new contract of insurance separate and apart from the Group Policy. Therefore, we hold the terms of the Group Policy do not control the terms of the new contract between Monumental and Arnold. For this reason, we need not reach the issue of whether the Group Policy violated Washington law, and, if so, the effect of that violation.
